The Topaz Collection: Did you ever have an experience and know at once that the memories of that moment would last you a lifetime? These are the ah-hamoments we repeatedly replay in our heads, such as the moment in Charlotte Snead's story, "Becoming Grandmother" when her newly adopted grandson realized that she was his grandmother, rather than a part-time caretaker. Or perhaps you gathered your most precious memories from a cluster of experiences spread over an extended period in time, such as in Melanie Sue Bowles' story "A Horse Named Cody," when she slowly mastered the technique of communicating with her recalcitrant horse. Reading about experiences such as these are likely to enrich your life evermore. The Awakenings stories found within the pages of this book fall into one of the above two categories. They will warm your heart as they inspire you to live your life to its fullest. Don't be surprised if you begin to view the world and your place in it slightly differently after savoring the Tales 2 Inspire Topaz Collection of Awakenings stories.
